The answer is 3125. (5x5x5x5x5)
20 is the answer in standard form because 5x5x5x5 is 5x4 but with four fives.
An exponent means "this many times." So, 4 cubed (to the power of 3; a 3 exponent.) is 4 NOT times 3, but 3 TIMES. So it is 4x4x4(=64). Or, 5 to the power of 5 is 5 times itself 5 times, so, 5x5x5x5x5(=3,125). 3 to the power of 9 is 3 times itself 9 times. Basically, the exponent tells how many times you multiply the number by itself. Does that help?
a to the b power means b lots of a, all multiplied together. Thus 5 to the 5 power or 55 is 5x5x5x5x5, and 5 to the 3 power, or 53 is 5x5x5. Thus the question can be written as 5x5x5x5x5x4x5x5x5x6. This is now a simple calculation that comes out at 9,375,000. Thus 5 to the 5 power times 4 times 5 to the 3 power times 6 is 9,375,000.
3,127.

The answer is 3125. (5x5x5x5x5)
5x5x5x5x5 is equal to 3125. This can be calculated by multiplying 5 by itself five times, which results in 3125. This is because when you multiply a number by itself, you are essentially raising it to a power, in this case, the fifth power.
ok. I had this same question! Nut the answer is 5^5... 5x5x5x5x5
5*5*5*5*5 = 55 = 3125
5x5x5x5x5 = 5x5 = 25 x 5 = 125 x 5 = 625 x 5 = 3125
If digits can be reused, then 5x5x5x5x5 = 3125. If digits cannot be reused, then 5x4x3x2x1 = 120.

5^(5) / 5^(4) = 5^(5-4) = 5^(1) = 5 or 5^(5) /5^(4)= 5x5x5x5x5 / 5x5x5x5 Cancel down by '5' ( top and bottom) and we are left with 5/1 = 5 as before. NB We do normally show number to the power/exponent of '1' except to aid in exponential calculations.
